Any day now, the Supreme Court is scheduled to rule on the Affordable Care Act, and whatever your opinion is of the legislation, I think it’s high time we talked about health care in Crown Heights. Anyone who has ever worked here can probably attest to the fact that local businesses rarely offer employees health insurance. While businesses may have many financial reasons for not offering such benefits, I believe those justifications pale in comparison to the harm caused by withholding health insurance.

For $235,000, you could indulge in a shiny new Ferrari — or raise a child for 17 years! A government report released Thursday found that a middle-income family with a child born last year will spend about that much in child-related expenses from birth through age 17. This doesn't include tuition costs for private schooling or Bar/Bas Mitzvah expenses, so raising a child in the Orthodox Jewish community actually costs a whole lot more.
